  • Great value and kitschy to boot! Love the concept, graphics and price. 
  • The best deal ever!
  • Great little fun guitar. Addicted to playing this one! So cute! Great sound and easy to play. I'm in love. I got a keeper!
  • Absolutely delighted with the quality of this instrument. It is very playable, has a nice little voice, and represents an absurd value for the price. 
  • The perfect beater. It's a small scale, but it sounds amazing, and is the perfect conversation piece.
  • What a fun guitar! First of all it's collectible...second, it looks great...and finally it sounds terrific! I haven't been able to put it down since it came to my door. Way more than just something to hang on a wall...this is no toy. 
  • Fun little guitar. It's got pretty good tone and it's more or less something you would break out on a camping trip or a BBQ when you wanna leave the Gibson inside.
  • The guitar looks so much better than on the picture. This is a unique item not only good for beginners. The sound is very nice. A great instrument and definitely a show off with its great graphics. 
  • Here is a little conversation starter that's more than a looker. This is truly a great campfire or back porch guitar. The set-up and action is very easy on the fingers. The fit and finish is excellent. The saddle is compensated. It even has an adjustable truss rod. The sound is very nice. It comes with a one year factory warranty. I love the graphics. It is ery well built and should last a long time with proper care. I highly recommend getting at least one before these are gone. 
  • These are great travel guitars with a terrific sound and a lightning fast fingerboard. They feature real wood construction and a 24 scale, steel reinforced neck that is precisely set from the factory. The open machine heads lock the guitar in tune and are light enough to maintain an ideal weight balance.
  • The fit and finish is fine and the guitar appears sturdy. The action is the best I've found on any small travel guitar, hands down.
  • The artwork is deeply set into the finish and certainly puts this guitar series in a unique, sometimes odd ball, sometimes corny 1950s time warp.
